What is Echo & Ivy?

Echo & Ivy is a keepsake album for your ultrasound photos. Import scans from clinic printouts or phone photos, and the app groups them by visit and pregnancy week into a soft, storybook-style timeline. Everything is stored on your iPhone — there is no account to create and no server holding your baby's first pictures.

Simple cleanup tools let you crop, straighten, and brighten each scan, and remove the clinic letterbox so the image looks like a keepsake instead of a printout. An on-device redaction tool detects the printed patient-name strip and lets you blur it before you share a scan with family.

Echo & Ivy organizes your real scans — it never generates faces, predicts appearances, or interprets images. It is a photo album, not a medical device, and it gives no medical information.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I save ultrasound pictures on my iPhone?

The quickest way is to photograph the clinic printout or import the digital image into your photo library. A dedicated keepsake app then helps you organize those images by visit and pregnancy week. Echo & Ivy imports scans from your library, cleans them up, and can save the finished keepsakes back into a named album in Photos.

Is there an app to organize ultrasound photos by week?

Yes. Echo & Ivy builds a week-by-week pregnancy timeline where each scan pins to the week it was taken. You can mark milestones like the first heartbeat at week 8 or the anatomy scan at week 20, and add short notes to each visit.

How can I make a scanned ultrasound printout look better?

Most printout photos suffer from skew, glare, and the black letterbox around the image. Cropping, straightening, and brightening fixes most of that. Echo & Ivy includes exactly these tools, plus removal of the clinic ID strip, and it never fabricates detail — the result is your real scan, just cleaner.

Can I remove my name from an ultrasound photo before sharing it?

You should — the printed strip on a scan usually shows your full name, the clinic, and the exam date. Echo & Ivy detects that text region on the device and lets you blur it with one tap, so the version you share with family or a group chat carries the image, not your personal details.

Does Echo & Ivy upload my ultrasound photos to the cloud?

No. The album is stored entirely on your iPhone, and the app has no account system and no server. If you want a backup, you can save keepsakes into your system Photos library, where your own iCloud Photos settings apply — the choice stays with you.

Do I need an account to use an ultrasound keepsake app?

Not with Echo & Ivy. There is no sign-up, no email, and no phone number to hand over. You open the app and start your album; everything stays on your device.

Can an app show me what my baby will look like from an ultrasound?

No app can genuinely do that — tools claiming to reveal a baby's face generate a fictional image, not a prediction. Echo & Ivy deliberately does none of this. It keeps and organizes your real scans, and any enhancement is limited to crop, straighten, and brighten.

How do I print my ultrasound photos or make an album of them?

Export the images at good quality and print them individually, or compile them into a single document. Echo & Ivy can share or print any scan and can export your entire album as one multi-page PDF, ready for home printing or a print shop.

Can I save videos of my ultrasound too?

Yes. Echo & Ivy imports short clips alongside photos, so the flickering heartbeat clip from an early scan lives in the same visit as its still images.

Is an ultrasound keepsake app a medical app?

No. Echo & Ivy is a photo organizer for sentimental images. It never measures, interprets, scores, or diagnoses anything in a scan, and it provides no medical information. For anything about the pregnancy itself, talk to your care team.

What happens to my scans if I switch to a new iPhone?

Because the album can mirror keepsakes into your system Photos library, they travel with your normal device transfer or iCloud Photos backup. You can also export the full album as a PDF at any time, so your scans are never locked inside the app.

What should I do with ultrasound printouts so they don't fade?

Thermal printer paper fades quickly, sometimes within a few years, so photograph each printout soon after the appointment. Once digitized, Echo & Ivy can straighten and clean the image and keep it in your timeline, preserving the scan long after the paper copy has faded.
